Emerging Markets worth Consideration for New Year Investment Strategies

December 2123:012017

New York – December 21, 2017 – Should investors consider the emerging markets more seriously in the New Year? Some of these smaller markets have shown rapid growth and potential, bringing them to the notice of investors who wish to diversify their purely domestic portfolios.

Regions and countries such as Asia, China, Brazil, South Africa, Taiwan, Russia or Turkey are considered emerging markets as they aren’t fully mature and offer the features present in the developed world. The IMF 2016 outlook has listed some of the emerging Asian markets as the fastest growing economies. After considering entering these markets, the other questions to consider deal with whether to go large or small cap, and which are the promising sectors.

Emerging market stocks have been studied for their potential, and reveal that it is a larger world that offers returns with risk adjustment, greater scope for spreading the portfolio, and not too dependent on worldwide trade.

“With high valuations in the US market that are likely to persist in the next year, emerging economies offer an alternative that serious investors can explore and study for any likely benefits such as diversification and protection,” says Strahan McNeil.
